Carol M.Hi Chris,
Thanks for the sweet words...and I haven’t even done anything! FYI...A dose of dex usually lasts about 16 hours in the bloodstream. So, a dose taken around 7 am should stay in circulation till about 11 pm. The amount of dex in the bloostream will gradually decrease over the course of the day, as per its chemical half-life properties.
Does Jack take his one dose in the am or at night?
One other thing (and I know this might sound a little obvious), but I think one of the greatest sources of information about how our kids feel on different medications/regimens are our kids themselves. So, it might also be interesting to see if Jack can tell you if he feels different on dex vs. hydro.
Anyway, please do keep in touch and let me know how things go.
